The Play Way's nanoblock Program has been specially designed by our occupational therapists to build skills for planning, organisation and time management using Sarah Ward and Kristen Jacobsen’s ‘get ready, do, done’ planning method. This method is explored in conjunction with nanoblock constructions and real-life examples.
The planner provides a scaffolded framework for planning backwards and in doing so, aims to develop the executive functioning skills required to plan, organise, sequence, execute and time manage the tasks required to complete an activity.
Created for ages 10 – 18

ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Skills it can help build
01
Skills for planning backwards by casting a vision of what it will look to be ‘done’ and ‘get done’ and then working backwards to think about what you need to ‘do’ and ‘get ready’ in order to be finished with a task
02
Organisational skills through experimentation with different strategies and tools for organising thoughts and ideas and working with the scaffolded ‘get ready, do, done’ planner
03
Sequencing skills as the processes for being ‘done’ with a task are clearly identified and ordered into a consecutive process
04
Time management skills through using tools such as timers to gain and understanding of the concept of different lengths of time and forecasting time estimates in the planning stage prior to commencing a task

WHO THE PROGRAM IS FOR
Does this sound familiar?
"My teenager needs help working out how to plan and organise themselves and their time, but won't be interested in therapy that feels like homework."
"My child regularly misses deadlines at school because they struggle to manage their time and understand what is required from them in a task."
"My child struggles to understand the concept of time and what it ‘feels like’ to have a certain passage of time pass, which makes it hard to meet deadlines."
If these challenges sound familiar, you are not alone, – it’s exactly why we’ve designed this program.

ABOUT THE VIDEO TRAINING
What the program covers
The Therapy at Home nanoblock Program aims to develop skills and confidence for using the ‘get ready, do, done’ planning method. This method provides a structure for learning how to ‘plan backwards.’ It starts with a forward focus to clearly identify what it will look to be ‘done’ and to ‘get done’ with a task and then works backwards to identify all of the steps and processes that you need to ‘do’ and ‘get ready’ in order to complete the task.
The program will be delivered using The Play Way’s nanoblock Workbook. It provides a detailed breakdown of how to use the planner and contains space to apply this to five different projects. Initially, these projects relate to the nanoblock constructions in order to build an understanding of the method with fun and engaging tasks. From there, the projects move to real-life scenarios in order to gain confidence and independence with using this method for day-to-day planning and organisation.
In addition to developing skills for planning and organisation, the program provides opportunities to experiment with different strategies and tools for focusing attention, organising thoughts and ideas and managing time. Tools such as visual timers, a fidget spinner, ‘get ready, do, done’ magnetic planner and post-it notes are provided for use alongside the workbook to further explore, develop and refine executive functioning skills.
